The Tramp
In March 1910, Douglas Goldring founded and edited the Tramp. It included contributions from a large number of authors both known and new. This bound volume contains vol. 2, October 1910-March 1911. A speciman issue was produced in 1909 but only 2 volumes were published.
The Tourist's Gaze
Travel literature has been described by Jonathan Raban as "literature's red-light district". It defies peoples' beliefs, confuses expectations, crosses disciplinary boundaries and is linked to ethnography, journalism and biography. Yet for all that has managed to remain not only a visible but also an increasingly popular literary genre. This anthology makes an entertaining and insightful contribution to this engaging field. It includes extracts from well known writers, such as Thackeray, Boll and Chesterton, but also presents less familiar figures from the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. The seventy pieces collected here both offer sharp observations of the country and are equally reveal...
Writers, Readers, and Reputations
Philip Waller explores the literary world in which the modern best-seller first emerged, with writers promoted as stars and celebrities, advertising both products and themselves.
Wyndham Lewis and the Cultures of Modernity
Making a strong case for a revaluation of Wyndham Lewis (1882-1957), this collection argues that significant aspects of Lewis's writing, painting, and thinking have not yet received the attention they deserve. The contributors explore Lewis's contributions to the production and circulation of modernism and assess the links between Lewis's writing and painting and the work of other key contemporary figures, to position Lewis not only as one of the first twentieth-century cultural critics but also as one who anticipated the work of the Frankfurt School and other social theorists. Familiar topics and themes such as Vorticism receive fresh appraisals, and Lewis's significance as a philosopher-critic, novelist, and artist becomes fully realized in the context of his associations with important figures such as John Rodker, Charlie Chaplin, Evelyn Waugh, Naomi Mitchison, and Rebecca West. Lewis emerges as a figure whose writings on politics, corporate patronage, shell shock, anthropology, art, and cinema extend their influence into the late twentieth and early twenty-first centuries.
Realism, Form, and Representation in the Edwardian Novel
Charts developments in literary realism between fin-de-siècle naturalism and early modernism by examining a wide range of realist novels from the Edwardian period, focusing in particular on works by Joseph Conrad, May Sinclair, Arnold Bennett, H.G. Wells, and Ford Madox Ford.
Ezra Pound: Poet
Volume I of a major new two-part biography. Contentious, colourful, revolutionary, here is the young Pound - a determined and energetic genius setting out to make his way both as a poet and as a force for civilization in England and America. Covering the years up to 1920, David Moody explores Pound's alliances with Yeats, Eliot, and Wyndham Lewis, the birth of Vorticism, and his poetry up to Hugh Selwyn Mauberley and the first Cantos.
I Cease Not to Yowl
This collection of never-before-published correspondence between Pound and Agresti, begun in 1937 and continuing through Pound's incarceration at St. Elizabeth's Hospital in Washington, D.C.--where he was found mentally unfit to stand trial for treason--reveals the depth and breadth of his many virulent views against the politics of the Second World War.
